Debi Fletcher reviewed: Chainmaille - Helmweave Bracelet

"This was my first ever class on jewellery making & I absolutely loved it! Wendy was very welcoming & her teaching way is very relaxed & encouraging. With the class taking place in her studio you gain such inspiration for lots of other helmweave items she has on show. I look forward to attending other classes at The Little Craftery to broaden my knowledge on chainmail technics under the expert tutelage of Wendy. Absolutely fabulous! 10/10 *****"

Lynne Friel reviewed: Paper Making - Hand Made Recycled Paper

"I attended a paper making workshop with Wendy. She's a great teacher, everything was ready for us and we followed the process step by step with Wendy's encouragement. We enjoyed tea and refreshments whilst discovering the techniques of paper making. We each went home with a mould and deckle and the skills to make paper at home. Can't wait to get started. Highly recommended."

Joy Roberts reviewed: Wet Felting - Jewellery and Beads

"I attended the felt bead class today. Excellent value for money. I learnt a completely new skill and took home a beautiful necklace, very impressive. Wendy's tuition is first rate and her Craftery is definitely an inspiring place to learn new crafts and buy materials."

Christine reviewed: Chainmaille - Half-Persian Bracelet

"I had a lovely afternoon learning how to make a chainmaille half Persian 4 in 1 bracelet. Wendy was brilliant and even though I hadn’t done this before, I was soon busily making a bracelet with Wendy’s guidance. I was delighted with the finished result and can highly recommend Wendy and The Little Craftery. Thank you for a lovely afternoon!"

Emma Patrick reviewed: Silver Jewellery Workshop

"I was amazed how professional looking my earrings turned out. I thought the course was good value, after all we were there for nearly five hours and came away with silver earrings. I’d like to do it again to make some more. Definitely cheaper than buying the equipment and sheets of silver."

Sue reviewed: Paper Making - Hand Made Recycled Paper

"I loved this course! In the space of 2 hours I learnt enough to go home with 4 sheets of my own paper and the inspiration to start shredding and pulping more junk mail at home for future projects. I've already ordered a creative paper making book and lino roller so watch this space!"

Clare Buckland reviewed: Paper Making - Hand Made Recycled Paper

"I thought this was an excellent course and well run. Wendy is engaging and informative without sounding 'preachy' and obviously has a love for her chosen profession. The verbal instructions were clear and well thought out and the addition of a printed instruction worksheet following the course was an added bonus. The fact that all the materials used can be supplied in your average home without the expense of having to buy specialist tools to carry on (and that we could take the mould home with us ) was very welcome. This is my second course at The Little Craftery and would not hesitate to book again and recommend others do likewise."

sue reviewed: Micro Macrame - Beaded Bracelet

"What a lovely Macramé bracelet class where I learned a new creative skill on a wet Sunday morning. Wendy is very patient (just as well as I seemed to be the last one to finish every time) and very knowledgeable. I left the class eager to show off my new bracelet (which looked shop-bought, in a good way!) As soon as I arrived home I showed my daughter how to make a bracelet with the kit I bought from Wendy. Watch out everyone this Christmas, guess what you're going to get from me??!!"

"I really enjoyed this class and would like to thank Wendy for all her help. I didn’t manage to complete my Macrame and have booked another session in order to go back and hopefully finish off. The classes are small and everyone is really friendly which helps put you at ease."
